South Brunswick is a township of about 48,000 in the south of Middlesex County, on the Mercer border.
Middlesex counted 1,827 Black residents in the 1800 census and 1,564 of them were enslaved — more than five in six. New Jersey passed its Gradual Abolition Act four years later and freed none of them: it reached only children born afterwards, and only after twenty-one or twenty-five years. In 1846 a second act said to abolish slavery renamed those still held as "apprentices" bound to their present owners. That is the pattern this organisation exists to refuse — a law written so that it can pass, rather than so that it works.
Middlesex County recorded 1,827 Black residents in the 1800 census, of whom 1,564 — more than five in six — were enslaved. Freedom and Blackness were not the same thing in this county, and the 1804 act did not make them so.

Abortion reporting to the CDC is voluntary, and New Jersey is one of four jurisdictions that declines. Its own Department of Health publishes no count of induced terminations, by county or statewide. The state that wrote abortion access into its statutes does not record how often it happens.
There is no figure for South Brunswick, or for Middlesex County, because there is no figure for anywhere in New Jersey. The best available independent estimate is 61,200 abortions provided by clinicians statewide in 2025.

Congregations we know of in South Brunswick Township that have taken a public abolitionist position — not simply a pro-life one.
We are not aware of a publicly abolitionist church in South Brunswick Township. We read every New Jersey congregation in the directory we work from — 106 of them — and found one in the whole state, in Glassboro. Abolitionists Rising, the movement's own national organisation, lists the same single church on its New Jersey page and no others. That is not a gap in the research. It is the situation.
If your church has taken a public position on abolition — from the pulpit, in a resolution, or in its own published words — tell us and we will verify it and list it here.
